A fun story about a family's vacation that doesn't start out so great (rain) but ends with lots of great memories of being together with extended family members. I like Brucie's idea for an assignment. You could also read this the first day of class and have children write and draw about their summer adventures.Karen Gaviganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17570915602468420380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7673314492769908571.post-502203127831646152008-02-17T15:34:00.000-05:002008-02-17T15:34:00.000-05:00I love the way things happen so true to life - jus...I love the way things happen so true to life - just as they finally get there and are playing badminton, it begins to rain. And it rains for days.... Then they finally get to the lake and once again, it rains!<BR/><BR/>I also like the way the siblings and other family members get along so well. We need more books that depict harmonious family relationships.A.

In this digital age, teachers could have students take pictures around the school and write about them in journals. The book would be great inspiration for such an assignment.Bruciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255863895817158024noreply@blogger.com
